Raptors at Knicks

- Knicks were routed by the Raptors two weeks ago, yielding 67 first-half points by playing passive and indifferent defence, which is the New York way. This looms as a revenge opportunity, assuming New York has any pride.

- David Lee played the entire game and came within one assist of recording a triple-double when Raptors last visited MSG. He'll know by tip time whether he has been selected as an all-star reserve. He'll be matched up against Chris Bosh, who is a shoo-in for the all-star team.

KNICKS NOTES

Chris Duhon remains mired in an incredible shooting rut. In his last nine games, Duhon has gone 9-of-51 from the field. During that stretch, he has gone four games in which he hasn't made a single field goal.
